In this lecture, Clare draws on his forthcoming book Brilliant Imperfection, which explores the social and historical roots of the idea of cure.Īuthor Eli Clare explores the social and historical roots of the idea of cure - the deeply held belief that body-minds considered broken need to be fixed - in his lecture Cure, Disability, Queerness, and Natural Worlds. Drawing on his forthcoming book Brilliant Imperfection: Grappling with Cure, Clare argues that neither an anti-cure politics nor a pro-cure worldview can account for the messy, complex relationships we have with our body-minds.

Triggers are those aesthetic or structural elements within messages that prompt-or trigger-discussion about their content. Social currency refers to the reactions of others to using or talking about a product. After extensively analyzing contagious messages including wristbands, smoking bans, and "fundraising at the local public radio station to the safe-sex messages we're trying to teach our kids," Berger condensed the recurring themes into six principles: social currency, triggers, emotion, public, practical value, and stories. In his new book, Contagious, Jonah Berger provides a formula consisting of six acronymal STEPPS for answering this simple, yet slippery, question. Looking at his research, much like studying a masterpiece in a museum, provides the observer with new insights about life and also makes one aware of the creators ingenuity and creativity. In a media environment wherein the mass of available information far outstrips human capacities for attention and digestion, why do some phenomena catch on while others are doomed to obscurity? Beyond advertising, attractive pricing, and simply higher quality, what causes some ideas, behaviors, and products to "go viral"? 'Jonah Berger is as creative and thoughtful as he is spunky and playful. Contagious: Why Things Catch On" Book Review Jonah Berger. All miscellaneous details of the story are under the control of this monolithic voice. Adding to all that, having employed first point of view as the narrator, Behn provides an opportunity for herself to enforce her political attitude to the story. A Bakhtinian reading, however, can disclose other massages. They both respect it and believe in its need for the society. On the surface, Aphra Behn and her hero seem to be of the same opinion toward monarchy and accordingly its policies. She attempts to portray her protagonist as the one who believes in social hierarchy what defines a gentleman from the narrator’s viewpoint. As a Tory proponent of her time, she defends the colonization and tries her best not to stand against. Aphra Behn, the author, intends to impose her monolithic view on the readers. Additionally, his relationship with the slave society lets their different beliefs and ideas be revealed to the reader despite the author’s will. The subtitle of the story, The Royal Slave, can be implied as referring to this paradox. This degradation, beside other elements of Bakhtinian carnivalesque, makes his language a unique one, belonging neither to aristocrats anymore nor to the slaves, but simultaneously representing both. Oroonoko, who used to be the prince of Coramantien, is doomed to live as a slave in Surinam a British colony. Having had its protagonist in a carnivalistic world, Aphra Behn’s Oroonoko provides a polyphonic atmosphere in which different attitudes toward colonization can be heard. He closed his eyes and focused on his breath, and then, when he was ready, placed his palms flat on the mat, level with his knees. Ignoring his voyeur, Sam pushed himself up from the cobra pose, so he sat back on his calves. He reveled in the sight of corded muscles moving beneath the taut surface of the younger man’s skin, like the workings of a well-honed machine. Declan adored how pliant and supple Sam was. He stared, bug-eyed and slack-jawed at all of that flawless pale skin, wrapped around an athletic, slim frame. He was on his belly, his back bowed, and his palms pushing against the floor as his shoulders rose in the midst of the cobra pose.ĭeclan slumped to sit silently on the king-size bed and watch. “Why d’ye no’ pick up? I’ve called ye, like, six times already! James wants us in fer a meet -” Declan stopped, and in the way, only Sam Aiken could do, the breath was stolen from his lungs.ĭeclan’s yoga mat was laid out in the center of the large bedroom floor, and upon it, a shamelessly nude Sam Aiken was facing the tall antique mirror that rested against the wall. He sauntered confidently towards the bedroom and knocked once before walking in. Declan was in a buoyant mood, at last, after weeks of waiting, he’d received a call from his boss. “In here.” Sam’s distant voice filtered from the spare bedroom. “SAM! Are ye home?” Declan hollered as he opened the front door. It gets pretty gritty at times, with violence and blood, and yet those serious moments are contrasted well by the slapstick innocent comedy of HS age boys.Įven though it's ongoing I would recommend it highly, and continue to come back for every new chapter, which I don't do with many ongoing mangas. But it's always refreshing to me to have a cast of beautiful men instead of beautiful women. A brief description of the 19 Days manga: Jian Yi and Zhan Zheng Xi are best friends. if again like always in manga they are high schoolers that look nothing like high schoolers. The art is compelling and beautiful, even 19 Days by Old Xian (ongoing) This storys central pair are best friends. The story draws you in and you desperately want to know what happens next to the main cast. Read comics, webcomics, manga, and manhwa online or download the WEBTOON app. That being said if those aren't deal breakers for you, the story is so funny and heartwarming and engaging. It's a drama, you're going to get some f-ed up relationship dynamics. Unfortunately in manga, and especially BL, this is to be expected at this point. 19 Days (Old Xian) Airhead Jian Yi and violent Zheng Xi were inseparable best friends until they reached high school Now in their college years, the two meet. Right off the bat I have to talk about the abusive and unhealthy relationship dynamics in this manga. So few reviews on such a good Manga! I'm so glad it was finally added to MAL. Soon after, Betsy loses her appetite and cannot consume food without extreme convulsions. Holly’s invalid husband dies a particularly gruesome death-the bedridden husk of man swallows toxic chemicals and stains his household’s floor with vomit before expiring for Holly and Betsy to discover. Sienna Guillory stars as Holly, a newly widowed parent left alone with daughters Betsy (Jessica Alexander) and Isabelle (Ruby Stokes). Still, it’s hard to comprehend A Banquet’s languishing pace-one made even more pronounced by such an unsatisfying finale misfire. Fans of quieter horror stories might devour the emotional trauma that meets a tepid possession arc. Justin Bull’s screenplay focuses heavily on two acts that seem to be building somewhere, then the credits smash as the third act fizzles away after reaching nothing but a simmer. It’s a film that learns the wrong lessons from A24-bred horror standouts and invests every cent into this “don’t show, don’t tell” application of sorrow. I’m confident some will find the arthouse ambiguity of Ruth Paxton’s A Banquet insidiously enthralling-unfortunately, that’s not my experience. Some hands parse out your darkest secrets. In this world, people of colour are occasionally bestowed strange powers called "hands," which are indeed tied to their physical hands. It's a noir, too: gritty, dark, embedded within the city's mobster underbelly. Trouble the Saints is a triptych of stories-three sections, three intertwined narrators-set in an alternate-history New York on the cusp of WWII. And I had a hard time grasping the magic behind the hands and numbers, which made it difficult to connect with the characters and their stakes. Often I'd catch myself drifting because the words on the page refused to cohere into any sort of plot in my head. We're immediately thrown to the world-building wolves, launching into convoluted gangster conspiracies without fanfare or context. I confess that I struggled for a significant portion of the book. But I also think it's important to say off the bat: While it wasn't the book for me, I would absolutely still recommend this for its unique exploration into legacies of trauma in BIPOC communities, and to anyone intrigued by preternatural assassins grappling with morality and mortality. I feel really conflicted about Trouble the Saints. until the colonized and the enslaved and the abused will rise up with the holy strength of the gods behind them and, together, we will make it right. When we return to the wheel of life, you and I, we will find one another again and again. Compare prices for generic tetraxil substitutes: Tetrax, Tetrecu, Tetrerba.

How Elizabeth comes to free herself from a loveless relationship, grapple with Lauren’s astonishing abilities, and come to terms with her own emptiness is the compelling heart of this remarkable tale. Then Lauren Denniker, Elizabeth’s adopted daughter, begins to display a miraculous gift-just as Elizabeth learns that she herself is unable to have a child. But Elizabeth, who has comforted so many, has lost her heart to the one man who cannot reciprocate, even when she moves into his home to share his bed and raise his child. After all, there were no more midwives after me.”For generations, the women in Elizabeth’s family have brought life to Kettle Valley, West Virginia, heeding a destiny to tend its women with herbals, experience, and wisdom. “I was expected to follow Mama, follow Granny, follow Great-granny. “I come from a long line of midwives,” narrates Elizabeth Whitely.
